Shop NowRussia could teach Border Czar Kamala Harris a thing or two about enforcing immigration laws. They don’t care if you’re a journalist for CNN or any other outlet. Crossing their border without permission is a serious offense. Being smuggled across in a military tank, by Ukrainian coyotes, only makes it worse. On Thursday, Moscow gave notice that the FSB “opened criminal cases against three journalists,” one of them American.
Russia enforces border law
One of the reasons that Russia has such clean and friendly public transportation is because criminals there face harsh penalties for the most minor of crimes. They don’t have to lock the detergent away from customers. They also don’t have millions of illegal aliens sponging off their social services. That’s because the Russians prosecute violations of immigration law. Kamala Harris, as a former prosecutor, worked from within the U.S. justice system to prevent the prosecution of anything.
She made San Francisco the zombie infested hellhole it is today. Then moved to Washington and tried to take it nationwide. Arresting shoplifters, armed robbers, carjackers or drug dealers is “racist.” Deporting border jumping aliens is totally against everything open borders globalists consider sacred.
You can bet that one of Joe Biden’s handlers will pull Kamala up to the podium by her puppet strings to read a strong speech off the teleprompter. Don’t be mean to “American journalist Nick Paton Walsh and Ukrainian correspondents Olesya Borovik and Diana Butsko,” she’ll whine.

The Federal Security Service can’t send them to a Siberian work camp just for doing their jobs, can they? Vladimir Putin is likely to say, you bet we can, this is Russia. The three who stand accused “illegally crossed” the Russian border. They have all the proof they need. They all aired footage “filmed in the area near the town of Sudzha.” What they don’t have are the defendants. Yet.
Maybe a reporter from Russia can wetback their way across, to do a story about terrorists sneaking in from Mexico, and get away with it. That doesn’t mean it’s true along the Russian border.
The Ukrainian soldiers who human trafficked them in are already facing the death penalty. That’s simply how that game is played. A press card isn’t a get out of jail free card in the former Soviet Union. Under the old rules, they would have already been shot as spies.
Ten kilometers from the border
Sudzha may be only 6.2 miles from the border but it’s still inside Russia. Ten inches or ten kilometers makes no difference. Volodymyr Zelenskyy has been infuriating Putin by rampaging across the Russian countryside, blowing up key bridges along the way.
You might not be seeing Nick Paton Walsh on CNN for a while. Making the Ukrainian invasion of Russian territory look good on TV has Vlad muttering under his breath in a way that makes his staff nervous.
Sneaking back across later doesn’t help. The FSB promises to hunt them down for trial. According to the Federal Security Service, the three reporters “will be put on the international wanted list in the near future.”

That way, they can be arrested and dragged back to Russia. Once convicted, “they could face up to five years in prison.”
Walsh is on the CNN payroll as international security editor. He may actually hold a British passport. “Borovik works for My-Ukraine television channel, while Butsko is associated with the Kyiv-based online news outlet Hromadske.”
The best thing the three of them can do now, Moscow advises, is turn themselves in. They also note that they recently opened criminal cases against “Italian journalists Simoni Traini and Stefania Battistini for the same reasons.” Russia doesn’t mind tourists but they really don’t like border jumpers. Kamala Harris should be paying close attention.
